Description: Quantitative Ecology and Evolutionary Biology : Integrating Models With Data, Paperback by Ovaskainen, Otso; De Knegt, Henrik Johan; Delgado, Maria Del Mar, ISBN 0198714874, ISBN-13 9780198714873, Brand New, Free shipping in the US This novel, interdisciplinary text achieves an integration of empirical data and theory with the aid of mathematical models and statistical methods. The emphasis throughout is on spatial ecology and evolution, especially on the interplay between environmental heterogeneity and biological
processes. Th provides a coherent theme by interlinking the modelling approaches used for different subfields of spatial ecology: movement ecology, population ecology, community ecology, and genetics and evolutionary ecology (each being represented by a separate chapter). Each chapter starts
by describing the concept of each modelling approach in its biological context, goes on to present the relevant mathematical models and statistical methods, and ends with a discussion of the benefits and limitations of each approach. The concepts and techniques discussed throughout th are
illustrated throughout with the help of empirical examples.
This is an advanced text suitable for any biologist interested in the integration of empirical data and theory in spatial ecology/evolution through the use of quantitative/statistical methods and mathematical models. Th will also be of relevance and use as a textbook for graduate-level courses
in spatial ecology, ecological modelling, theoretical ecology, and statistical ecology.
